Recommendation
Whitehall and Devolution
Recommendation · verbatim
The Committee’s view is that after more than a quarter century of devolution there remains significant concern around levels of understanding of the powers and role and of the devolved governments and legislatures within Whitehall. There appears as a result, a lack of thought in some cases about how devolution affects the development of policy by the UK Government and passage of legislation at the UK Parliament.
